MOTION OF THE HATCH COVERS AT ONCE.
BEFORE FILLING OR DRAINING THE CARGO HOLD NO.3, ALL

VENTILATION COVERS, COVERS IN WAY OF AIR VENT ON HATCH
COVERS MUST BE OPEN.
3.1.1 General hints
All control desks for operating the hatch covers are arranged on
weatherdeck.
All the control desks are arranged on starboard.
Before lowering the covers it may be useful to move them towards opening in
order to get a clearance for the securing devices.
Attention:
When the covers are lowered and secured to the coaming check following points:
− when loaded, the covers shall rest on all supports uniformly
− all wheels must turn free, even with load on the covers!
− the lateral clearance between wheel's flanges and rails must be more than the
clearance of the lateral stoppers!
3.1.2 Limitation of operation
The hatch covers are designed for operation under conditions up to
max. trim of ± 2,0° and max. ship's heel of ±3,0°.

Temperature range from -20°C to + 45°C.
3.1.3 Preparations before opening the holds

− Remove deck load from the hatch covers.
− Make sure that there is no cargo or other obstructions in the path and the
stowing space of the hatch covers.
− Check cleanliness of coaming top before operating the covers.
− On weatherdeck, disengage "Snap Lock" cleat bolts by using the supplied

handspike.
3.2 Operating of the holds

Refer to “Hydraulic system finish drawing & Catalogue”.
3.2.1 Start both pumps at both power units.
− Power unit feeds oil for hatches
3.2.2 Opening the weatherdeck holds
Each folding pair on weatherdeck has its related hand lever arranged at the
respective control desk (see instruction plate !).
There is no restriction in the sequence of operating the folding pairs on

weatherdeck. Put the hand lever of the desired weatherdeck folding pair to be
operated into "Open" position and keep it until the folding pair is fully opened
against the stop.
Put the hand lever back into neutral position then.
Check that the automatic securing hooks are engaged on both sides!
Operate the hand lever of further weatherdeck folding pairs if more holds shall be
opened.
After each opening procedure check the automatic securing hooks to have
engaged!
Don't forget to switch off the power unit after use.
3.2.3 Closing of the weatherdeck holds
There is no restriction in the sequence of operating the folding pairs on

weatherdeck. After releasing the securing hook, put the hand lever of the desired
folding pair to be operated into "Close" position (see also instruction plate) and
keep it until the folding pair is fully lowered onto the coaming.
Put the hand lever back into neutral position then.
Operate the securing hooks and hand levers of further folding pairs if more holds
shall be closed.
Don't forget to switch off the power unit after use.
After closing the weatherdeck holds, engage the "Snap Lock" cleats.
3.2.4 Alternative operation when solenoid or sensor fail
There is pressure reducing valve block on pipe for each panel, which used
to reduce max. pressure to ~150bar for piston side of cylinder when hatch
cover open to near full opened condition. The pressure reducing valve
block is controlled by an inductive sensor. If solenoid or sensor damage,
high pressure more than 150bar can not reach and pressure is not enough
for open hatch cover. The solenoid or sensor should be changed.
For emergency operation, the alternative solution is using suitable tool to

push solenoid valve by hand. When near complete opening, stop pushing
solenoid valve to get pressure less than 150bar for the safety.
GUIDANCE MANUAL
4. Troubles, Emergency & Auxiliary Operation
4.1 Troubles
Reaching an oil temperature of 60°C the thermostat will switch off the concerned
power unit. Re-start after the oil has cooled down.
A level switch switches off the concerned power unit when the oil level is too low.
An adjustable timer will switch off the concerned power unit after half running
hours.
A pressure switch will alarm unit if the return line filter is contaminated.
4.2 Emergency operation
During operating, the covers will stop immediately in each position when putting
the hand lever of the related control valve back into neutral position.
By pushing an "Emergency off" push button, the E-motors of the related power
unit will be switched off and all motion of the hatch covers of the related hydraulic
circuit will stop immediately.
If a pipe line between a control desk and a power unit should burst or if a power
unit should fail, all motion of the concerned hatch covers will be stopped
immediately.
If a pipe line between a control desk and cylinders should burst, the unsecured,
concerned folding pair will run downwards. However, speed is limited by flow
control valves incorporated into the cylinders and is about 1,3 of the normal
speed.

5.1.2 SNAP LOCK cleats
Check periodically that all hooks are firmly engaged on the weatherdeck hatch
covers.
If a cleating bolt can be locked too easily, adjust it by the hexagon nut.
The elastic washer must be replaced when the rubber has lost its elasticity.
Replacing is recommended every second year.
5.1.3 External Painting
The hatch covers should be preserved according to the ship's painting

specification.
Do not paint rubber seals, piston rods of hydraulic cylinders and flexible hoses.
5.1.4 Welding and flame cutting
− Do not damage rubber seals by heating. Dismount them when nearby areas
are being repaired.
− When large-scale repairs of the equipment are undertaken, call for a TTS
expert in order to avoid deformations and twisting by wrong welding
sequences which could avoid watertightness.
5.1.5 Replacing damaged rubber seals
− Perform gluing as described in the enclosed instructions (see page 5.5 ff.)
− When replacing the complete rubber sealing, the corner pieces must be glued
first, then the straight line rubber strips -with an overlength of abt. 5 mm per
meter- have to be installed.
− For connection of moulded pieces and/or straight strips the ends have to be cut
accurately and in right or 45° angle.
5.1.6 Mounting instructions for TTS seals
5.1.6.1 The TTS sliding seal shall be glued in between the seal retainers.
Adhesive to be used: HAWE "Super S" or an equivalent glue approved by TTS.
Follow manufacturer's instruction for use of the adhesive (JY-2).
5.1.6.2 Before installation of the seal strips make sure that:
a) they have been unrolled as a straight line and have

rested in this condition at least for 24 hours,
b) the seal dimensions have been checked carefully,

especially the height of the seal profile.
If the stated deviations exceed the allowable tolerances,

TTS must be informed immediately.
5.1.6.3 Cut the rubber profile accurately and in correct right angle in order to fit each
other. Prepare the straight strips by cutting with overlength (max. 5 mm per
meter) so that they will be slightly compressed longitudinally when inserted. The
rubber seal shall not be stretched during the installation.
5.1.6.4 The rubber seal has to be dry and free of dirt and grease. It is recommended to
roughen the contact surfaces and wipe them with thinner shortly before glueing.
Use therefore clean cotton waste only.
5.1.6.5 Mix the glue thoroughly and apply it without thinner. Thinner should be added
only if the glue has become too much viscous.
5.1.6.6 First of all insert the corner pieces (use screw clamps, if necessary). Spread rear
of the rubber corners with glue by using a paintbrush. The glue is ready for
application when the surface still feels sticky but shows no threads by touching
with a finger. Fit the corner pieces into the retainers and hit them with a rubber
hammer.
Notice: It is advisable to make a test before beginning to work as the drying of glue
depends on the ambient temperature and weather conditions.
5.1.6.7 For glueing rubber to rubber (end pieces, corners and hoses) use the special
glue LOCTITE 495. Pay attention to the working instructions of the manufacturer
of the glue.
5.1.6.8 The three surfaces of the retainer channel for the straight rubber seal must be
painted with glue quite thickly by using a paintbrush.
5.1.6.9 Immediately after this, and before the glue has become dry, the contact surfaces
of the straight seal strips must also be painted with glue. Then press the rubber
seal into the "retain channel". During the inserting the wet glue shall fulfil the
function as some kind of lubricant and it will act as sealing material between steel
and rubber.
5.1.6.10 After finished installation all joining edges and glueing seams must be sealed
with elastic rubber cement(Loctite 495). Unevennesses have to be smoothed
and planned.
Caution:
The adhesive is highly inflammable!
All necessary precautions must be taken!
5.2 Maintenance of hydraulics

As pumps are working in hydraulic fluid, maintenance is limited to keep the
hydraulic fluid perfectly clean. Cleanliness is achieved by the return line filter
which requires a systematic maintenance. After repairs of pipe lines, especially
during the first operation hours, keep an eye on the filter unit, because small
particles may flow in the circuit. Therefore, clean the filter at the beginning several
times.
5.2.1 Warnings
REPAIRS ON THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM WITH CLOSED HATCH COVERS ONLY!

OTHERWISE THE COVERS COULD MOVE UNINTENTIONAL.
BEFORE DETACHING ANY CONNECTION MAKE SURE THAT THE HYDRAULIC

SYSTEM IS PRESSURELESS. THIS HAS TO BE DONE BY SWITCHING OFF THE
PUMP UNIT AND MOVING THE CONTROL LEVERS FROM THE "OPEN" TO THE
"CLOSE" POSITION SEVERAL TIMES. OTHERWISE PRESSURISED OIL COULD
HURT PEOPLE AND CAUSE SERIOUS INFECTIONS!
PAY ATTENTION TO THAT IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR UNAUTHORISED PEOPLE TO

START THE PUMP UNIT AS LONG AS WORKS WILL BE DONE AT THE SYSTEM.
USE ORIGINAL HYDRAULIC HOSES ONLY! PAY ATTENTION TO PROPER

DIMENSIONS OF HYDRAULIC HOSES!
5.2.2 Regularly
Before starting the power unit, check the oil level in the tank. Refill if necessary,
but only with closed holds.
Check the condition of the return line filter.
Check the function of the "Emergency stop" switches.
5.2.3 Every six month
Check pipe-lines, flexible hoses and units for corrosion, wear, leaks etc.
5.2.4 Every year
Consult your oil company's representative and arrange for a check on the
condition of the oil. If necessary, change the oil of the system. Take care of the
regular removal of the weared up oil.
5.2.5 Hydraulic fluid specification
Hydraulic fluid requires a certain consistence of oil. To comply with this the
hydraulic system has been filled with a sufficient oil type. When refilling, use the
same oil or an approved equivalent (see "Characteristics for hydraulic oil" page
below)

5.2.6 Oil exchange and pump bleeding
IMPORTANT NOTES:
OIL EXCHANGE WITH CLOSED HATCH COVERS ONLY !
ENSURE THAT THE WEARED UP OIL WILL BE REMOVED ACCORDING TO

THE RULES OF POLLUTION CONTROL !
5.2.6.1 Preparation
− Control quantity and type of the new oil (see chapter 1).
− Keep ready a new filter insert and a new copper sealing ring for the drain plug.
− Keep ready a sufficient number of containers suitable for taking up the weared
up oil.
− To absorb oil running over keep ready suitable means such as sawdust or
granules.
5.2.6.2 Draining the weared up oil
− Close the ball cock in the P-line and detach the pressure hose. Insert the
pressure hose into a suitable container and switch on pump no. 1 or 2 to suck
off the weared up oil until the level switch will stop the pump.
− Screw out the drain plug at the bottom of the hydraulic power station to remove
the remaining oil.
− Renew the filter insert and clean the magnetic bar of the feed back strainer.
− Attach the new copper sealing ring to the drain plug and screw it into the tank.
Attach the pressure hose, too.
Note: When exchanging by reason of weared up oil the remaining small quantity of oil in
the system (cylinders and pipes) shall not be removed. To bleed the whole
system thereafter could take a long time caused by remaining air in small holes
inside the cylinders and control desks.
5.2.6.3 Bleeding of the hydraulic pump
At first initial operation, and after every oil exchange, the pumps should be bled in
order to avoid suction problems or the penetration of air into the consuming
elements. Act as follows:
− Before filling the tank with hydraulic oil unscrew the vent screw of the pump
completely.
− Fill up the tank to the upper mark with new hydraulic oil. It may be efficient to
wait a few minutes until the oil has displaced the air inside the pump.
− Screw in and tighten the vent screw and switch on and off the pump for several
times.
− Allow the pump to run in an unpressurized cycle for a short period of time
(3-5 minutes) by acting as follows:
∗ Open the by-pass valve (if existent)
∗ Reset the pressure relief valve at the power unit to a pressure value of zero
by screwing it left.
∗ Close the ball cock in the pressure line P
− Start the pump. The pressure gauge shall show no pressure. Close slowly the
by-pass valve (if existent).
− Set the system pressure slowly up to 350 bar by screwing the pressure relief
valve right. In case the pressure gauge will show no pressure, open the
by-pass valve slowly, reset the relief valve to zero, stop the pump and bleed it
again by unscrewing the vent screw.
− Bleed pump no. 2 the same way as described above.
5.2.6.4 Adjusting the rated value
− Open the by-pass valve (if existent)
− Start both pumps.
− Slowly close the by-pass valve (if existent).
− Set the system pressure slowly up to the nominal value by screwing the
pressure relief valve right.
− Secure/lock the relief valve and check pressure value again!
− Open the ball cock in the pressure line P. Keep covers closed and check oil
level again. Refill if necessary. Now, the power station is ready for use again.
5.2.6.5 Exchanging the oil by reason of emulsification (water in the system)
In this case the whole oil has to be exchanged. Empty the tank as described at
paragraph 5.2.6.2, open the tank by dismounting the cover plate and clean the
empty tank with a no-fluffing cleaning-rag. Thereafter act as described at
paragraph 5.2.6.3 and 5.2.6.4.
The remaining oil in the system (cylinders and pipes) should be removed by
scavenge with new oil as follows:
− Detach return line R and insert it into a suitable barrel
− Switch on one pump. The contaminated oil will be pushed through the pipes
into the barrel.
− Operating the hand levers situated at the control desks (opening and closing of
all hatch covers) the contaminated oil resting in the cylinders and their
pipes/hoses will be removed.
− During scavenging, refill the tank continuously with new oil.
